Does your cat like to drink water from a running faucet? Well, you’ll love this new ceramic cat fountain from Keith Davitt at Thirsty Cat Fountains. Keith’s gorgeous handmade cat fountains are not only beautiful to look at but they are perfect for keeping kitty hydrated. All of his fountains are made with 100% food-safe ceramics that don’t scratch like plastic fountains, which can harbor harmful bacteria. The new Cat Tap design includes a copper spout that gives kitty a constant supply of running water without making you stand at the sink. Copper is naturally antimicrobial, inhibiting the growth of bacteria. The Cat Tap can also be added on to most of Keith’s fountain designs.

We’ve been testing the new Cat Tap fountain and everyone loves it, especially Ando. I seem to find him drinking more often with this design. We have the the larger capacity fountain which is very nice with multiple cats. You can adjust the pump speed to create a soft running water sound or no sound at all. The fountain is really easy to clean and it adds a lovely water element to the room.

I’ve been serching for the perfect cat fountain and I think this is it. My 15 year needs to drink a lot of fluids and other fountains leave him under-whelmed. And my 2 year tuxedo has had pancreatitis and needs to drink a lot, too.

Hello! My cats would love a reddish bowl, and it would look great in the cats area making a huge contrast, but they don’t have this color, so I think that the Slate Quarry Green with blue highlights would look great as well!!!

The Slate Quarry Green would look AWESOME in my home for my three cats! Or, I could even use it in my foster cat shed, to replace an old plastic fountain. The foster cats are usually a little sick and would benefit the most.

What an awesome idea!! My cats always wait for me to turn on the faucet whenever I am near one. They hate drinking out of their water bowls. All of the colors and designs are amazing! I prefer browns and greens though.
